Clunes Booktown Festival Information

Event Dates:Saturday 2nd of May 2015 to Sunday 3rd of May 2015

Australia's only International Booktown hosts the Clunes Booktown Festival over the weekend of 2 to the 3 May 2015.

The annual festival is approaching its ninth year and regularly attracts between 18,000 and 20,000 people who come for the opportunity to browse through thousands and thousands of books - rare, new, second hand and out of print across all genres.

What better way to celebrate books than to browse the more than 50 book shops and stalls that transform the township of Clunes each May.

The concentration of books - new, second-hand, collectable and out-of-print across all genres - surpasses any capital city in Australia. Nowhere else can you find so many book traders within a square kilometre than over the Festival weekend.

Look out for special offers closer to the festival when booking your weekend festival pass online.

If you missed the last festival, Clunes permanent booksellers offer great browsing throughout the year and there is also a year-round monthly writers' talks program Sunday Selection. Full details on the website.
